RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - Ocito80 - 08-17-2020 Well, I never see an error pop up until I load a file. That means I already previously saved it. No backups. I chalk it up to impatience. Like I said, I have to review my process. But where there is failure, there is also growth. RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - Ocito80 - 08-18-2020 I managed to trace back to two mistakes that led to the setback. With that said, I'm progressing forward with a renewed perspective. The OOB is already reworked, with even more excess units of no importance trimmed away. How I was handling the WN units has been tweaked a little. I've begun placing the Allied units by reverse engineering the stock beach landing scenarios, and will expand from there. RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - Ocito80 - 08-20-2020 Just a little update - All 5 beaches have the june 6 initial waves scheduled. The allied airborne divisions are placed, as are most relevant German Wn. The Wn have been tweaked in what I hope will add just a pinch more flavor. I don't really know the time allied units landed ashore after june 6. The date is easy enough, but did they arrive morning, evening, midnight etc.etc. is a bit trickier. So from here on out that will be just guess work. I will use PzC Normandy scenario to help with this process. While I come up with a game plan for the rest of the allied units, I will start placing the Axis Units. RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - Ocito80 - 08-23-2020 Update Time - 99% of axis units that start on the map have been placed. I fell down the rabbit hole of trying to uncover more information about the cherbourg landfront. However, specifics regarding individual positions are difficult to find. Only around 10% of the positions have I been able to find usable information on. One thing I was able to deduce, not all positions included some type of Anti-tank gun. 75% of german reinforcements have been scheduled thus far. Party on wayne, party on garth! RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - Ocito80 - 08-24-2020 Sadly, it doesn't look like the mega-scenario is possible. As the scenario file size reaches around 267kb, what looks like a memory issue arises, making the ability to navigate around pbedit impossible.

I have never run into a memory issue to date. I’ll see how large I can go to.

I've included my current scenario to assist with troubleshooting RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - berto - 08-25-2020 When I load your PBNormandy_Campaign_New.oob into pboob.exe, I get this error: [attachment=4932] Confirmed in the Logs/error.log file: rober@B10Trto /cygdrive/r/Temp/Logs $ cat error.log 2020-08-24 20:51:31 pboob.exe: [ERROR ID 1000] (Window.cpp, line 259, XCWindow::ReadFile()) C:\Games\John Tiller Software\Battles of Normandy\Data\PBNormandy_Campaign_New.oob file data error, at or before line 1059 This is more or less the identical error I get when I try loading up the scenario in pbedit.exe.

For some reason I have been unable to determine, the data reads go bad at the line P. 32730 4 1./Füs-Btl 185, MG gruppe (RAD) Quick suggestion: Should the all-caps 'RAD' perhaps be lower-case 'rad'? (Maybe it doesn't matter. I don't know the system, or your data, well enough to say for sure.) Or? Are these helpful clues? RE: Atheory's Project: PzB-Normandy Campaign - Ocito80 - 08-25-2020 Berto, did you place the oob file in the data folder? I want to say you didn't, because the 185 fus btl is the first unit to have the MG gruppe unit which is why you got that location error first.
